UK Trap Pioneer Ozzie at Yugong Yishan
UK Trap pioneer Ozzie is only 22 years old, but is considered a pioneer of trap music and has toured around the world. He’s known for his innovative sampling and use of negative elements to amplify his bone-rattling bass. The artist is also one of the UK’s top trap producers. He will be joined by DJ Civan, EVOL, and Pussystack. RMB 120, RMB 80 (advance). 11.30pm-late. Yugong Yishan

ShadowPlay Essential presents Peverelist and Kowton (pictured above)
Peverelist and Kowton form the backbone of Livity Sound, one of the most forward-thinking labels coming out of the UK in the last few years. The label (which takes its name from a Rastafarian word meaning, roughly, “life-force”) pushes forth a form of dance music that builds on a long tradition of pioneering dub music in Bristol, while establishing itself as one of the finest examples of bass music's recent embracement of house and techno. Support from Shackup. Price TBA. 10pm-late. Dada

Concrete Jungle
Migas’ funkiest resident DJ, Cad 73, is back with his weekend night of funk, hip-hop, afrobeat, disco, soul, and more. Price TBA. 10pm-late. Migas
